Belly continues to grow while
the rest of me shrinks.
Now there's steak in there.
Silly baby wants another Easter :o) |
Sixteen
(16) Weeks
Finally four pounds up from
pre-pregnancy weight. Baby
is beginning to grow very fast
now! And kicking frequently
since Mommies Day :o) |
Seventeen
(17) Weeks
Baby kicks HARD now! This is
so COOL! ::babythump:: |
Eighteen (18) Weeks
I'm just so fascinated with baby!
We watched fireworks last night
and discovered that she kicks back
when she hears them...SO COOL! |
Nineteen
(19) Weeks
Baby kicks bladder. Woohoo.
::blink:: Heh. And my belly
button is no longer the one I
recall. Can you say "outie"? |

We're HALF WAY THERE, Baby!
Mommy is finally up 7 1/2
pounds from pre-pregnancy!
Baby is destined for a lucrative
kickboxing career. |
Twenty One (21) Weeks
Skin is running out of elasticity.
But I'm cool with that. I love this
baby and I'll go through anything
to get her safely into this world. |
Twenty Two (22) Weeks
Tight belly skin and some sore
ligaments this week, but also
some absolutely amazing baby
movements in there! WOW. |
Twenty Three (23) Weeks
My precious baby has learned how
to get stuck under my ribcage.
She also likes to kick other babies
while I'm holding them, which is
sort of neat :o) |
Twenty Four (24) Weeks
Six months. Wow. And she gets
more like me every day. Cute? Uh,
worrisome! But I love her so much! |
Twenty Five (25) Weeks
Wow...nearing the third tri!
Mommy lost 2.5 lbs this week, so
I'm looking a bit small. Baby girl,
however, is still quite big :o) |
Twenty Six (26) Weeks
Aside from the hypoglycemia,
anemia, broken toes and
babyfeet rammed in my ribcage...
this isn't so bad. ::wheeze:: |
Twenty Seven (27) Weeks
My belly button is threatening to
pop off and run away...but these
babymoves are really getting cool! |
|
THIRD TRIMESTER |
|
Twenty Eight (28) Weeks
My belly button is now testing
the properties of physics.
I think the baby is, too. |
Twenty Nine (29) Weeks
This week's news: 3x daily baby
hiccups. Also extremely wobbly
and running into things frequently. |

doubt... |
Thirty Two (32) Weeks
Baby has managed to actually
fracture a rib and bruise the
surrounding muscle. Ouch. |
Thirty Three (33) Weeks
Baby is measuring two weeks
ahead of due date and is in "blast
off" position. Ribs still hurt more
every day, but I love her anyway.
She weighs about 5+ pounds now. |
Thirty Four (34) Weeks
I'm going to pop. No, seriously, I
swear. Even my belly button is
trying to escape! ::tap tap::
Hey Rachel...you cooked yet? :o) |
Thirty Five (35) Weeks
The baby dropped and...thank
the light...I can breathe a bit!
However...I'm worried I may pop. |
Thirty Six (36) Weeks
NINE MONTHS!!!
With my "practice birth" of a 3mm
kidney stone, I'm feeling ready for
childbirth. COME OUT, RACHEL!!!
|
Thirty Seven (37) Weeks
FULL TERM!!!
Something has definitely changed.
The baby has dropped and I'm
bulging outward! (And if you think
this is hilarious, you ought to see
the belly during a contraction!) |
